I've actually known a fair amount of Canadian-Americans over the years. The ones who were originally from Calgary and the inland who moved here for the oil & gas industry tended to be relatively conservative. (I say relatively because some people who would vote Conservative in Canada would still probably vote for a Blue Dog/DLC Democrat over a Republican). The ones from Toronto or Montreal or the eastern part of the country tended to be more liberal.
Some Eastern European immigrants become right-wing Republicans. But if I had to live under Eastern Bloc communism, I might come to hate any and all government in general too. I remember an immigrant businessman who made an ad for Romney last year talking about how he didn't want America to become more like whichever ex-Soviet country he had moved away from.
